The Decade Osprey has died... time for an upgrade!

So those who know us know that we have had a ford escort hatchback for quite some time.
It has since throttled its last chortle, we believe, and have since replaced it with a "cargo hauler".

She may not look like much, but she's fast enough for you old man - she's got it where it counts.  She'll make point five past lightspeed, and I'm making a lot of special modifications myself. I've outrun Imperial entanglements. Not the local bulk cruisers mind you, I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now.
I really wanted an SUV, especially a Dodge Durango.  But the good news, is that the minivan has since grown on me.  It has plenty of space for 7, including my co-pilot, and if I take out the captains chairs and the rear bench, there is lots of room to haul stuff, and even throw down an inflatable mattress for in-vehicle camping expeditions.  When this ships a-rocking, don't come a-knocking!

In other news, we're already making plans for another 3-day holiday weekend, one that doesn't have one of us ralphing.  And our next geek-out trip to SLC,
